This was really helpful!! I I honestly think you’re the #1 rehab guy on TH-cam, I’ve done them all but you’re concise, clear and undramatic. I’ve spent 5 years rehabbing from partial SCI and your videos have really changed my life, particularly the ribcage stacking exercises. My PT also loves you and when I visit her, she asks me “which Connor Harris video are we doing this week?” 😂 Thank you for everything !!!
This is the best video you have ever produced. Taking an actual client and exploring both the range of motion testing and the subsequent exercise solutions that moved the client to a programmed solution. Excellent.
@@conorharris Hi Conor. Would you recommend any practitioners in the uk with an approach like yours (I.e deep biomedical diagnostics, and creating a bespoke rehab programme to precision target the issues)?
Anyone in here have cracking feet or big toe pain? I only have it on the left side and I think I’ve done something stupid to my toe. I’m definitely duck-footed and am looking for answers. Conor, you’re a saint for these vids.
Hi Conor, I hope you’re well. I haven’t finished watching the video just yet but i just wanted to say, I’m 22 years old and i can’t lie i don’t remember a day where i woke up feeling good. I have had many problems throughout my entire life, the earliest memory i do have is being around 10/11 years old i’d have what i thought was foot cramps every night without fail. ( i’m not too sure if this was the beginning of what’s happening to me now but yeah ) Long story short for years now after having a pretty serious knee injury when i was about 18 i wake up feeling like i can’t move my back, only seems to be getting worse. All i’m really trying to figure out is where it all started and how i can fix everything bit by bit without rushing. I do just wanna say as well before people come at me about not going to the doctors, i grew up in an environment where people just got on with anything no matter the problem mentally or physically. Any help is much appreciated!
I have the opposite problem my feet pronate too much. Which causes hip and knee pain. I been using orthotics in all my shoes which have helped a tremendous amount over 30 years. I’m a very active 60 year old.
You don't have too much pronation. You probably have collapsed feet. Too much pronation is a myth. Does your feet turn out when standing or do you see the outside edge of the feet parallel?
In the same boat here also. He was describing my issues to a tee until he mentioned the high arches. I present with extreme duck foot stance, hips in extension and externally rotated, and all my shoes are super worn out on the outer edge I’m assuming from over supination. BUT I have next to no arch so….back to the drawing board lol.
@@snwboardr9876have you considered that your feet are only flat because your tibia is internally rotated to compensate for a risen arch? This was my issue.
This video is great information. I have always been hyper-aware of this "duck foot" with my own cadence. I have always felt the negative consequences & have only been able to correct it through regularly jogging, which I have done minimally throughout my 40 years of on/off training. Stretch every day to accommodate your posture & form to function cadence is the best approach to success. I am currently fighting knee & lower back demons which I know will be corrected with focus on these exercises and my posture. Thank you
This is where I think PRI and Anatomy in Motion come together really nicely. When someone loses their neutrality because of the way the foot is interacting with the floor then I go to the Anatomy in Motion techniques to determine what movements are missing in each joint in the feet, what the brain needs to experience to allow for an actual complete pronation or supination and teach them to sense the entire body pronating or supinating with those improved foot movements. I have yet to have someone come through the door who has good pronation and supination on both feet while maintaining a good tripod under each foot. Doesn't matter if they're a life long dancer, yogi, athlete, dog walker, desk worker, runner, stay at home mom, barefoot enthusiast etc. We are all patterned and the feet are no exception.
Awesome video, I’ve been having the high arch issue on my right foot and have had hip pain on that side and knee pain on my left. I naturally do a lot of my squat movements with toes out and realized my right ankle is collapsed outwards.
It took several years of treatment at the VA and tons of money out of pocket for treatments outside the VA, before new acupuncturist mirrored what you said. In acupuncture, she said they call the feet the second heart due to the fact they have such power over your entire body.
Chronic pain 20 years here, everyday. Do you have any services or places to go online, to help piece together something that might work for me? These videos are great, but most of us here are not studying anatomy to this advanced level, so find it hard to discover and put into process
I am pretty much convinced that my digestions is messed up due to a strong acrched back. When I move my hips forward and straigthen it out, I can feel how my stomach relaxes and the bloating goes away faster.
There’s something to be said about this. I have a similar issue and I’ve only realized recently (after doing a ton of lower back PT) that the issue is directly linked to how tight or loose my back / hips are.
Hi Conor. How does one 'sign up' (if possible) for the same process this person has undergone with you? I have been dealing with complex body issues for years now and suffer a lot of consequences in sports because of it. Thanks
I know I have problems with my feet and is being recently I felt twice and since then my right hip to toe changed position they said I have bursitis and after that my sciatic nerve started acting and to finish now I also have problems with the tailbone. I am going to start working a little bit with my foot and then going up I always believed that the right and straight posture is very important but it’s seems like it just me
holy - i had this exact issue. nothing was working, or worked very temporarily. ive been just working on rotating my tibia while standing and its like a revelation. could you please let me know where to find more info/how to on the exercises you went through with him? ive been trying the mobility band grip and turn one but i cant seem to get to work
Hi Connor, Im willing to fly from California to Portland for an initial assessment.. How can I book an appointment? The website is directing me to your coaches, I would like to have initial assessment with you..
Wow I believe you did a great job covering every issue in the lower body👌🏻 But how about the curve spine or scoliosis that badly developed due to Left AIC Parttern ???? Cuse it really limits my range of motion during exercise and some specific drills that target the pelvic .
Hi Conor. Love you videos, been helping me a lot! In a lot of them you use a ball to keep the knees in line with the hips. Does a foam roller work too or does it not separate the knees enough
I would love to work with you. I had a sprain in my left big toe that went undiagnosed for almost 2 years that completely changed my gait in everything I do. My leg hip and shoulder are extremely weak. Diagnosed with myofascial kinetic chain, EDS and slipping rib syndrome. Nobody knows what to do not even pt or chiro. Help! Im in spokane and willing to travel
Awesome video! I think this is me to a t. Obviously testing is the only true way, but when I stand on my feet shoulder width apart, and I kick myself in the butt with my feet, my left foot goes back fine and straight but my right foot literally has my toes flail right and my heel is inwards. That’s indicating the right torsion there of the tibia? Thanks
Hi Connor i am a 16 yr old boy from Holland and i would like to ask if i can get an online lesson with u or hit u up somewhere? I have some specific issues and would like to know how to fix them i would really appreciate it its also causing me alot of pain..
Mr conor . In case ur center of gravity shift to Right. In my mind i was thinking wouldn't it be easy to shift the COG to the middle b4 deal with the anterior orientation. To get a better stack . But not orientation out of or compensation
@@conorharris thank you for your time priceless content. I should probably start with the beginner program and work my way there i guess? Or start from the ground up?
Hi! Does it make sense to work on foot-specific techniques if you are not "neutral" pelvis/rib. Like, can you enter true pronation of the foot if the femur/pelvis on top I abd/ex rot. Thanks for great content.
Conor! Took your course and got done in May. Thank you so much for all your content and can't wait to start the advanced course! By the way, where did you get that full Skeleton from? I got one a month ago but it was HORRIBLE! Take care man and thanks for the great case study.
I have cavus feet. Borderline deformity status (thanks DAD). While my feet rarely hurt, my ankles, knees, hips, back, neck and shoulder kill me. Im a really tall guy but my feet are so scrunched up i wear a smaller shoe than you'd expect. My right foot is only a 9.5 and my left is a 10.5... since 11.5s are rare, i was wearing 12s most of my life just for the width! Recently, i went down a full shoe size but also went up to a wide width, and i also use the Dr scholls footbeds designed for "overweight" people, although i am at a healthy weight myself. Ive had dozens of doctors overlook my feet, cut my hips open, recommend back surgery... Why, after 25 years of suffering, has a doctor only now looked at my feet? It did take me over 2yrs to get an appointment though... Only got in because the foot doctor is partnered with my hip surgeon. Dont get a surgery just because that doctor is easier to get in with and you got his opinion first before seeing a foot doctor.
Hi Conor, According to MRI of the knee, both have thickening of the ACL and curvature of the PCL. Are there any exercises you can recommend for these or is surgery necessary? I watch your videos carefully and want to take beginner body restoration training, but I don't know if it will get worse due to knee condition.
Patient walks in with an issue caused by wearing shoes with an artificially raised heel his entire life. Conor: Let's give him another pair of tennis shoes. What you should have done: switched him to barefoot shoes and let him adapt back to walking the way he was designed to walk.
I’m a week into the lower limb program, and a big surprise has been how much it has helped my lower back pain.

@@prasadshetty5226es ..
I can't even sit on a chair ,just on tip toes ...🎉
Me too. I have big feet with normal width. I wonder if any people with big feet have high arches? I’m guessing not?
Do you have a secondary video addressing the same rotation issue, but caused by feet that are flat?

Hi Connor,
do you have a video on exercise 2 and 3 done in this video?
But I already purchased beginner Body restoration I need lower extremities.
Do you know anyone that does this sort of physio in New Zealand?
Great video. Is there a video for Intoeing? (Pigeon feet)
Do you have any videos for feet pointing inwards?
Does the Lower Limb Foundations program cover these types of foot / tibial rotation issues?
Yes 🙂

Are there certain shoes you’d recommend for people wanting to improve foot health and posture?
So when I do the Toe Drop exercise, my big toe likes to wander out to try and stabilize me. What compensation needs to be corrected in that case?
for the last exercise, does it matter which band is at the top?
Does your Beginner Body Restoration program require any special equipment? I didn't see a contact page on your site?
Foam roller and an exercise bench are helpful but not 100% necessary 🙂
@@conorharris thank you.
I have flat feet - do you have a video for this
in the lower limb foundation course you have the wedge exercise without a band. is it ok doing without a band?
